Practical Implications

La práctica físico-deportiva genera numerosos beneficios para la salud, siendo la adolescencia uno de los periodos clave para la adquisición de estos hábitos. Por consiguiente, la materia de Educación Física es un escenario ideal para ello, encontrándose relación entre diversas variables (motivación deportiva, importancia de la Educación Física y clima motivacional), con la continuidad de la práctica físico-deportiva. Sin embargo, son escasos los estudios que han analizado la influencia que tiene practicar deporte de forma federada o no federada en estas variables. Es por ello, que los objetivos de este estudio son conocer las diferencias existentes en la motivación deportiva, el clima motivacional en las clases de Educación Física y la importancia que se le otorga a las clases de Educación Física, teniendo en cuenta si el alumno está federado en algún deporte o no, y averiguar si existen diferencias en las variables predictoras de la motivación deportiva intrínseca y extrínseca, dependiendo de si están federados. Se ha analizado una muestra compuesta por 267 estudiantes de secundaria, utilizándose como instrumento de medida un cuestionario. Los resultados muestran que existen diferencias en la motivación extrínseca y la importancia de la Educación Física según si los adolescentes practican deporte de forma federada o no. Además, aunque las variable predictoras de la motivación deportiva tanto intrínseca como extrínseca son las mismas para ambos grupos, la importancia de estas variables varía según si los adolescentes estaban federados o no. Por último, se presentan una serie de conclusiones e implicaciones prácticas para el diseño de las clases de Educación Física.Abstract. Physical-sports practice generates numerous health benefits, adolescence being one of the key periods for the acquisition of healthy habits. Therefore, the subject of Physical Education is an ideal scenario for it, as relations between diverse variables (sports motivation, importance of Physical Education and motivational climate) and the continuity of the physical-sports practice can be found in it. However, few studies have analysed the influence of practising sports in a federated or non-federated way on these variables. It is for this reason that the objectives of this study are: to know the existing differences in sports motivation, motivational climate in Physical Education classes, and importance given to Physical Education classes, taking into account whether the students are federated in any sport or not; and to find out whether there are differences in the variables predicting intrinsic and extrinsic sports motivation, depending on whether the students are federated. A sample of 267 secondary school students was analysed using a questionnaire as the measuring instrument. The results show that there are differences in the extrinsic motivation and importance of physical education depending on whether adolescents practice sport in a federated way or not. In addition, although the predictors of both intrinsic and extrinsic sports motivation are the same for both groups, the importance of these variables varies according to whether adolescents were federated or not. Finally, a series of conclusions and practical implications for the design of Physical Education classes are presented.

Empirical observations reveal low enrolment of senior secondary school students for physical education at external examination bodies. The poor rate of students' choice of the subject at this level is a matter of concern to professionals, given the fact of monumental benefits of physical education as a science subject to humanity. The study was conducted to examine how psycho-administrative factors influence the choice of physical education by senior secondary school students at external examination bodies (in Nigeria) to come up with modalities to increase enrolment of the subject at external examination bodies. Descriptive method was applied for the study due to large respondents involved. Self-developed validated questionnaire tagged psycho-administrative determinants for choice of physical education among senior secondary school students at external examination bodies (PADGPEAS) was applied for the research. Out of three thousand and twenty-four (3024) questionnaire forms administered, only two thousand and fifty (2950) copies completed and returned were coded for analysis, with the use of descriptive statistics of percentages and nonparametric statistics of Chi-square (x 2) at 0.05 level of significant. Results unraveled a remarkable influence of psycho-administrative variables on the choice at physical education among senior secondary school students at external examination bodies. Based on this outcome, it is suggested that utilization of variety of methods by physical education teachers will go a long way to kindle the interest of the students for the subject. Enlightenment of students and parents on the values of physical education will facilitate remarkable positive attitude of both parts that relocate their position in favor of the subject.

Practical Implications

Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the benefits of physical exercise among secondary school students. Participants in the study were 251 students (120 boys and 131 girls) attending three public secondary schools in the Hlanganani rural area of South Africa. A validated questionnaire was used to collect data. Results of this study indicated that students exercised to be with their friends, to be physically attractive and compete with others. The findings of this study have practical implications for promoting participation in physical activity among students in rural schools. In an effort to promote physical activity participation, schools should be provided with quality sports infrastructure and funding so that they can implement school sport programmes. Finally, the teaching of physical education should be emphasised in schools as it is the cornerstone for children’s involvement in physical activity.

<p> </p><p>The goal of this research is to investigate schools’ policy of using a mobile phone at schools from the perspective of secondary school students in Indonesia. It happens to be a long debate involving educators in Indonesia on whether or not the use of smartphone can be allowed in schools. So far, all we hear is the perspectives of teachers and schools’ administrators regarding the ban but never from the students, even though the students are the subject of these debates. This research is conducted in order to investigate, as well as to give the opportunity for students’ to voice their opinion, point of views, and perspectives toward the issue of banning smartphone use at schools. The data of this research was collected through online survey aimed at secondary schools’ students in Gorontalo, Indonesia. There are 250 students from 5 high schools have responded to the online surveys. The result shows that even though students mostly believe that the use of smartphone should be integrated into teaching and learning process, an appropriate policy of using it at school should be designed in order to get rid of the negative impact cause by it, and to maximize the use of it as a sophisticated resource to help students learn better at school.</p>

The Difference

Abstract Research paper deals with the opinions of students of secondary schools on physical education lessons at school. The aim was to find out various aspects of education such as popularity, demandingness, importance of the subject, feelings and emotions during PE lessons, and sport preferences of young people. The results have shown that the opinions of students on popularity, significance, talent, motivation and effort exerted during PE lessons were more positive than negative. Boys stated that they consider the subject not difficult, popular, and they show effort at lessons. Girls stated that the subject is not demanding, popular, but in a smaller degree than boys. Girls marked the subject as less importantn they show less talent for it and are less motivated for it than boys. As to boys, PE & Sport lessons evoke always or mostly emotions, while the answers of girls oscillated between mostly emotional, sometimes emotional or sometimes unemotional. Difference between the answers of boys and girls was statistically significant on the level of p<0,05. The answers of boys and girls to the question concerning cancellation of a PE lesson were oscillating between the values 2 and 3 (I am often happy; my opinion is indifferent), despite the fact that they stated in the questionnaire that they mostly feel well at PE lessons. The difference between both genders is statistically significant on the level of p<0,05. The answers of boys and girls to the question concerning satisfaction with the content of PE lessons oscillated between the values 2 and 3 (satisfied; partially satisfied, partially not satisfied). Generally we can state that the answers of students were more positive than negative. The difference between the answers of both genders is not statistically significant on the level of 0,05 (p=0,07). The answers to the question concerning the quality of PE lessons oscillated between the values 2-3 (mostly of good quality, changing quality). Boys presented a little more positive answers than girls, however, the difference between both genders is not statistically significant on the level of 0,05 (p=0,411).

The population of the study consists of high school students affiliated with the Ministry of National Education, and the sample consists of high school students in Erzurum city center. In the study, random sampling method was used and 100 students participated. In order to determine the socio-demographic characteristics of the subjects, frequency and percentage analysis, independent t-test to determine differences between genders, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test to determine differences between other characteristics was used. As a result, if these differences are thought to be in adolescence, it can be said that their attitudes towards physical education lesson in this period are taking shape. In this respect, it is seen that secondary school students have a important period in the sense of attitude formation. Therefore, the direction and strength of the attitudes of secondary school students should be measured. The attitude of highschool students towards physical education and sport lessons according to their age, number of siblings, family members' sports status and family income levels were examined.
